How do I get rid of something that I have been collecting for years?

I am finding it very hard to let them go. If I could find someone that wanted them maybe I would be okay. By the way they are clowns of every shape and size and texture. I probably have 300 or more.

    Sell them on Ebay. They will go to good homes.

    I don't like clutter it stresses me out but found I have to stick to a few rules. If one thing comes into the house one thing goes out. If I don't need it, if it is damaged beyond repair, doesn't fit or I have used it within a few years to it out of here. If the memory is important I take a picture and keep the picture. Pick out a few favorite clowns and sell or donate the rest. It would be better to highlight and respect a few important pieces than to have too much of something. Man that can a hard to follow but be strong.

    Hi Susan, have you tried to look up collectors online to see where the others are that collect clowns? You will likely find a few groups out there. I found one page on Facebook that you could contact, https://www.facebook.com/groups/1406866429342234/

    Might consider ETSY their fees are much lower than Ebay
